Up for grabs is a gorgeous 1998 Great Britain 1 oz Silver Britannia coin, safely preserved in a protective coin capsule. This specific coin holds massive historical significance for silver stackers and numismatic collectors alike, as 1998 marks the very first year the Royal Mint struck the Britannia as an uncirculated bullion coin. Unlike modern Silver Britannias, these early vintage issues were minted in traditional .958 fine Britannia Silver. This means the coin is physically larger (40.00 mm) and heavier (32.45 g) than contemporary post-2013 versions, while still containing a full troy ounce of pure silver. With a highly limited original mintage this vintage beauty is highly sought after and far scarcer than today's unlimited, high-volume releases.
